Maximize website encryption with GoDaddy's 90-day automated SSL certificates
SSL certificates are essential for anyone with a website, especially small businesses, entrepreneurs and larger businesses. They protect sensitive customer data and maintain trust in online transactions. SSLs authenticate the identity of a website and encrypt information sent to the server.
'As a global leader in website security, with over 100 million active SSL certificates, the introduction of automated 90-day SSL certificates ahead of any industry requirements is another way that GoDaddy is anticipating the needs of its customers and leading the way,' said Selina Bieber, Vice President of International Markets at GoDaddy. 'By automating SSL management, we're making security easy for everyone, ensuring our customers stay ahead of potential risks with minimal effort," added Bieber.
Currently, many SSLs purchased from certificate authorities require manual re-installation over the lifecycle of a one-year certificate. This process can be time-consuming, require external support, and fall to the bottom of busy entrepreneurs' to-do lists. Now, with a GoDaddy fully Managed SSL, a do-it-for-you service, customers no longer need to worry about these cumbersome steps. GoDaddy handles every aspect of SSL lifecycle management, from installation to issuance and renewal—delivering effortless website encryption and protection.
GoDaddy's 90-day SSL certificates automatically renew and reinstall every three months, eliminating the manual steps typically required by other SSL solutions. This fully automated process not only reduces the burden for website owners but ensures continuous protection without disruption.
While 90-day certificates are not yet an industry requirement, GoDaddy recognizes the positive impact that SSLs with encryption that is refreshed five times per year will have on its customers' business growth and privacy concerns. This also takes into account the role automation can play in ensuring the heavy lifting of re-installing the certificate more frequently is in the hands of the certificate provider. GoDaddy's managed SSL certificate automates the entire process, meaning customers don't have to manually select, install, or manage their 90-day SSL certificates, while getting the benefit of five encryption refreshes, annually.

Tenable Expands Exposure Management Platform to Secure Enterprise AI
Tenable®, the exposure management company, today announced a significant expansion of its market-leading Tenable One platform with the launch of Tenable AI Exposure, a comprehensive solution to see, manage and control the risks introduced by generative AI. Unveiled at Black Hat USA 2025 , these new capabilities provide an end-to-end approach that moves beyond discovery to include risk management and policy enforcement for enterprise AI platforms like ChatGPT Enterprise and Microsoft Copilot.

Tenable now offers a single, unified solution that addresses the entire lifecycle of AI security challenges. 'Simply discovering shadow AI isn't enough. A true exposure management strategy requires an end-to-end solution that lets organizations discover their entire AI footprint, manage the associated risks, and govern its use according to their policies. That's exactly what we are delivering today,' said Steve Vintz, Co-CEO and CFO, Tenable. 'With Tenable AI Exposure, we're giving organizations the visibility and control they need to safely embrace the promise of generative AI without introducing unacceptable risk. This is a critical step in the evolution of exposure management.' With an agentless deployment that provides coverage in minutes, Tenable's unified AI Exposure capabilities deliver: Comprehensive AI Discovery: Unifies insights from Tenable AI Aware , scanning from AI Security Posture Management ( AI-SPM ) and continuous monitoring to discover and identify all sanctioned and unsanctioned AI usage across the enterprise environment.
